WORK EXPERIENCE:

Graduate Research Assistant (May 2009 - present)

University of Hartford, CT, Research Project "Evaluation of Economic

benefits of photovoltaic distributive system".

My responsibilities included the following:

. Assisting in Economic and Engineering models that can be used to predict

and evaluate the Economic benefits of distributive system of Photovoltaic

technology.

. Modeling photovoltaic system using PSCAD (Power system computed Aided

Design) software and testing it with real time recorded data.

. FORTRAN computer's programming to track the maximum power point and to

utilize the lower efficiency of PV modules.

. Designed an effective approach to automatically generate failures on

photovoltaic system in PSCAD and run test cases for loss of power.

. Interfacing Monte Carlos Program in MATLAB to PSCAD to perform failure

analysis on inverter's components.

. Running simulations with different MTBF and MTR values of the inverter's

components and performing extensive analysis of output data by using

Excel.

. Working persistently towards the completion of project under minimal

supervision.
